The famous NA12878 WGS at 50x

Due to the lacking of true variants from real genome sequencing, many tools use NA12878 for benchmarking. For whole genome sequencing at 50x depth, we can download these two files: ftp.sra.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/fastq/ERR194/ERR194147/ERR194147_1.fastq.gz ftp.sra.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/fastq/ERR194/ERR194147/ERR194147_2.fastq.gz
